“My family really enjoyed our first time here today! Our server was so warm & welcoming and took the time to do something special for each of our kids. The service was top notch & the food was equally amazing! Very family friendly cozy dining space with comfy seats. We definitely recommend first bite & will be back!”

“Love this place! Karen and staff are always so friendly and kind when you walk in. Cute shop, feels like home. Shakes and teas are made with care and if anything need fixing Karen is always on top of it! Great flavors, and a nice stop in Grafton.”

“It's been a while since I tried their pizza. But recently, it is so good, albeit smaller in size compared to Pizza Hut or Dominos' own. Definitely the best pizza I've had in the area, including Pepperoni Express.”

“Our local Indian restaurant in Worcester was unexpectedly closed tonight so we decided to try Peppers Indian Cuisine. We were blown away by the incredible food, huge menu selection and really fast service.Definitely my favorite restaurant, we will be back regularly now. Highly recommend”

“The server we had last night was the biggest jerk and should be fired. We left after being clearly discriminated by your staff. We’ve been coming here for years but will never be back after yesterday’s experience. Ricardo was a complete jerk and should not be in the restaurant business.”

“Last night before the Judds concert, we were looking for a place to have dinner. Most places right around the venue were at least an hour wait. We ended up a couple blocks from away at a place called deadhorse hill . It was a small place, not a huge menu but a decent selection of options. The greeter was prompt and polite. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming. Our waitress was attentive and funny with a quick wit. While we waited for our meal, I observed the bartender expertly measuring, stirring and shaking drinks while engaged in friendly chatting with other staff and people at the bar. Our food was great. We each got burgers and fries and they were delicious. When the bill came, there was a 20% tip already factored in. I've seen this done for large parties before but it was just three of us. Apparently it was stated on the menu, I hadn't seen it. I'm paraphrasing here because I don't recall the exact wording but basically they said the reason they do it is so that all staff is paid equally and they earn enough to make a livable wage. I thought that was pretty cool and then it dawned on me, our waitress was truly one of the best I've ever had. In truth, she didnt have to be. Technically, she was already getting her 20% guaranteed. She didnt have to put in any extra effort. The same goes for the rest of the staff. To me, this made it all the more impressive. The backs of the shirts they all wore said, "Don't be a Pickle kicker". Couldn't figure out what that meant so we asked our waitress. She told us that some time ago back they first opened, a young man worked there and when it got busy and he was building the sandwiches and a pickle fell to the floor, he would just kick it under the fridge. When other staff would clean they would find piles of pickles under there. So its a message to everyone on staff to think of each other, take pride in their work and don't be lazy. I thought that was pretty amazing. All in all, if you ever find yourself in Worcester, MA for a concert or event at the DCU Center, go early and have dinner at Deadhorse Hill. Well worth it and a wonderful experience.”

“Thank you so much for shipping our order so quickly! It did arrive even before the needed date and I couldn't be happier with you guys. You sure "deliver" every time!:) Thanks!!”

“I got to try Sabrosa today. The owner was so kind and the food was delicious. The garlic sauce was perfection.The business is also able to cater to gluten free guests and even attended GFree fest as a vendor. Delicious!”

“Modern tacos, good sauces and seasoning. A bit overrated and light on protein for the price but not much competition in the area so I’ll probably be back. Wish the menu had some more items like burritos/chimichangas/”

“i love stopping in to get some work done before going to my office down the street. everyone is always so friendly and the food is AMAZING. their numerous specialty lattes are so good and give me clean energy.”

“Incredible food and amazing service, they hosted us for a book club and everything was perfect. Best ham and cheese crepe and the most wonderful cream puffs, perfect service.”

“What a great find in Worcester. We arrived with no reservations on a Sunday night. The place was packed, however the staff found a place for us and gave us a wonderful meal. We will definitely be back.”

“The food at Fatima's is absolutely delicious and very fresh. The owner is an amazing human being who is incredibly kind. My daughter loves a cake she makes, and Fatima was out of it on the day we were visiting the restaurant. I told the owner we would be back for cake on our next visit, when my daughter was home from college. The owner told me that there was no way my daughter was headed back to school without having her favorite cake. She made a special batch that morning, when she was not even open, in order for my daughter to enjoy it before she left. Both my daughter and I were in tears, we could not believe her incredible kindness. I hope this place succeeds greatly and is around for years to come! Fantastic service, incredible food, and kindness are a winning combination!”

“Vivacity Nutrition is amazing and more than just a place to drink a smoothie! The variety and customization is next level and Maddie has created a safe space for people to connect, relax and be themselves. Anytime I walk in there Maddie greets me with love and authenticity no matter what she has going on in her life. Her staff are friendly, have good customer service and make a great drink! I look forward to stopping in for so many reasons. Best place to get drinks in town hands down!”

“I found myself in Worcester yesterday and searched for vegan food online and found Belmont Vegetarian among others listed. After seeing several pictures of dishes I decided to go! And I’m glad I did! Belmont Vegetarian (where everything is vegan) was delicious and in heaping portions. There’s a smaller (but still big) container for only $17 and change and a giant container (which I obviously got) for $19 and change. I got BBQ, mac n cheese, rice , beans, and chickpeas, and some sweet n sour steak. They also make their own delicious juice with sea moss. I got watermelon. The place is set up for takeout mostly with only 2 dining tables.Definitely worth the drive from NH!”

“This place is amazing. Central Mass does not have a lot of vegan comfort food spots so I was happy when this place opened. I’ve been vegan for 16 years and the “chickun” sandwich and (juicy af) breakfast sandwich may be the best I’ve had anywhere.”

“Very nice place, delicious food! Highly recommended! The cocktails were very good as well. We had empanada with an amazing sauce and tacos for entrees. For main course Guava bbq chicken, and haddock cangrejado. Be back for sure!”

“Been in Worcester 5 years and I dont know how ive never heard of this place even though I've been next door at the pizza place when I was new to the city.I just played it safe with the italiano, but it was exceptional. This is the archetype of an italian sub. If I had a friend that had never heard of an italian sub before, I'd take them here.11 dollars but its pretty damn big and has a lot of meat. Bread is fresh and makes the sandwich.”

“The perfect NY style pizza place in Worcester! As a New Yorker I always feel at home here!Kid-friendliness: Brought two kids with us one 10yr and one 3yr, they had a great time! The workers interacted with them and made them feel welcomed!”

“We ordered from here for the first time on Valentine's Day and it did not disappoint! The food was pretty good. I was intrigued in the honey mustard bacon cheese fries so I ordered them and they were surprisingly very good! I would definitely order them again! They had a nice little kick to it because of the honey mustard! I loved them! My bf got the teriyaki sirloin tips with rice pilaf. He said it was good. I got the chicken & rice soup but I saved it for the next day and it was a typical soup. Nothing spectacular about it. I also forgot to take a photo of it because it was the next day. My meal was the chicken and broccoli alfredo pasta without the broccoli and I opted to get linguine pasta. It was very good and filling. I'd say my only complaint was the amount of oil that was in it. I had to take some napkins to it and put it in a bowl and there was still a lot of oil! All in all, I would definitely go again. I'd probably order something other than the pasta. Though it was very good I thought it was way too oily for my liking.”

“Made my first trip to Root and Press yesterday and I will be back. What a great place! Ordered the Purple Cow and it was very refreshing. The Chipotle Chicken Avocado Sandwich and Aloha Chicken Panini were delicious. Staff was knowledgeable and very accommodating to food sensitivities.”

“Quintessential "greasy spoon" diner experience. Space is tight, food is amazing, and the people watching unparalleled. Be prepared to stand outside, no matter the weather, because seating is limited, but it's worth the hypothermia. Best french toast. Period.”

“Not only do they have the best homemade Mediterranean food, market and service, but they also made the best birthday cake I could ask for! Thank you for making this birthday so special Bahnan’s Bakery!”

“This place is a hidden gem! Went here off a recommendation of some friends and they raved about this place. Really nice and quite atmosphere, pizza was also fantastic!! Service was 10/10, cant recommend this place enough!”

“Love this spot! Have gotten to enjoy my friends performances here, and also enjoyed playing the open mic there myself! Their charcuterie has a great selection, and their beer is delicious too! Always something new to sip on! Cozy spots to sit and mingle with friends! Would recommend this place to anyone!”

“This is an adorable Boba shop that hits my sweet and savory cravings all at once. I've tried a different flavor every time I've been here, and they're all delicious ? Staff are great, and the shop is always clean ♡”

“The chorizo salmon is the standout dish of the restaurant. It is a wonderful feeling when you order a dish and the waiter replies, “great choice” and you can tell they genuinely mean it. I have never had salmon cooked to such a perfect temperature upon request. They got it spot-on at the first try, indicating that when they cook seafood, they do so in a deliberate and expert manner.”

“This place is insanely good. I had the cucumber with winter spices and now I'm addicted.Vegetarian options: Amazing veggie bowls. Can be vegan or vegetarian.Dietary restrictions: Great gluten free options.”

“Stopped in with friends who have been here before but it was our first time and we were very impressed! Hard location if you don't know you might drive right by, small inside but don't let that fool you. The portions were great. The staff was so nice and very informative. And the choices of food had a great variety. Loved the specials as well! Loved that it's a scratch kitchen. Everything came out hot and perfectly cooked! The best part though I have to say is the home made carrot cake!”

“One word… AMAZING!! Everything we ordered was so fresh and delicious. The drinks are light and refreshing, my favorites are aloha guava, og Mia, and strawberry sunset! My kids LOVE the new croffles! Highly recommended!”
